Attempting to cover-up her soiree with late-term anortionist George Tiller last spring, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has been caught fabricating a story. Today, her office admits that the reimbursement for the dinner party that took place on April 9, 2007, was made only ten days ago, on May 23, 2008, nearly a month after an Operation Rescue staff member made an Open Records request on April 28, 2008, for receipts related to the event. The Open Records request was finally honored on May 23, 2008, the same day that the Greater Kansas City Women's Political Caucus supposedly reimbursed the State of Kansas for the event. "It took Sebelius and her cronies a whole month to figure out a cover story for the Tiller party once they realized that news of it was out," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. "There is still not one shred of evidence to back up her fairy tale. The accuracy and authenticity of anything they produce now cannot be trusted. Our source, who was at the ...

Governor Kathleen Sebelius said yesterday that the reason she hosted George Tiller and his staff for a private dinner or party event at the Governor's Mansion on April 9, 2006, was because he won it as an auction item at the 2006 TORCH dinner given by the Greater Kansas City Women's Political Caucus. While the only Sebelius donation on the original list of auction items was a pewter bowl, www.kansasmeadowlark.com now reports that the KC Star Primebuzz of September 21, 2006 said under "Torch Tidbits" that " A late-arriving from Wichita Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius also was well received, particularly when she offered up as an unexpected auction item dinner for six with her and the First Dude at the Governor's Mansion." Kansans for Life Executive Director, Mary Kay Culp said: "It doesn't matter if the Tiller party was an extension of the TORCH auction dinner for six, or another event altogether as the source of the pictures claims.

CitizenLink.com , the action arm of Focus on the Family, has published a three part video interview with Johnson County District Attorney Phill Kline, who has risked his career in an attempt to enforce Kansas abortion laws. Kline, the former Kansas Attorney General, has been involved in prosecutions of late-term abortionist George R. Tiller of Wichita and the Planned Parenthood abortion mill in Overland Park. He is currently being sued by Planned Parenthood — the same one he is also prosecuting on 107 criminal charges. Go to Operation Rescue to view all three videos.

Used with permission of the artist, John Francis Borra, veritatis@eaglecom.net Editorial Cartoon: Tiller's New Best Friend Commentary by Operation Rescue : In 2006, former Attorney General Phill Kline was attacked by Tiller’s political hacks as being “Snoop Dog” for his courageous investigations into illegal activity at Kansas abortion clinics. Operation Rescue dubbed Kline’s successor, Paul Morrison, as Tiller’s “Lap Dog” for taking actions to protect Tiller from 30 serious criminal charges filed by Kline. Morrison later reigned after it was revealed that he was engaged in an illicit sexual affair and had attempted to use that relationship to illegally influence criminal cases against Tiller and Planned Parenthood. Now comes the new appointee, Steve Six, who is fast becoming Tiller’s “Guard Dog” due to his efforts to block evidence from a grand jury investigating Tiller. We believe that this is a transparent effort to protect Tiller by thwarting a legitimate grand jury investigati...

Yesterday, in Judge Tatum's court in Johnson County, District Attorney Phill Kline presented evidence to show that Planned Parenthood's lawyers may have a conflict of interest in representing Planned Parenthood in Kline's case against Planned Parenthood. The hearing was valuable for uncovering actions indicating Sebelius' hand-picked AG, Paul Morrison, gravely misused his office both to help Planned Parenthood avoid prosecution, as well as to hide all his court maneuverings on their behalf. (Court filings on these matters have been unjustifiably "sealed" from public scrutiny since at least June). Judge Richard Anderson of Topeka was a witness in the hearing and his testimony indicates Morrison actively engaged in a coordinated campaign with Planned Parenthood to reclaim papers from Anderson --papers that police handwriting experts had told Anderson were forged. Among other things, Judge Anderson testified that he found (from evidence Kline presented as AG o...

Court Disregards Petition Conditions, Allows Distrusted Prosecutor To Direct Tiller Grand Jury Wichita, KS – A grand jury was impaneled today and instructed that the prosecutor who would be directing the investigation of late-term abortionist George R. Tiller is Deputy District Attorney Ann Swegle. Swegle was involved in the 2006 grand jury that investigated Tiller in the 3rd trimester abortion death of Christin Gilbert, which failed to indict on four counts by only one vote. “It was because of Swegel’s handling of the ’06 grand jury that this petition specifically demanded that District Attorney Nola Foulston and anyone associated with her not be involved in the grand jury,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “We highly suspected monkey-business during that last grand jury and wanted to avoid the same kind of corruption with this one. “Over 7,500 people signed the grand jury petition under the condition that Foulston’s office and Morrison not be involved. Now, the courts hav...

Says DA Foulston and AG Morrison have “conflicts of interest” due to ties to late-term abortionist George Tiller Wichita, KS – Operation Rescue has formally demanded that District Attorney Nola Foulston and disgraced Attorney General Paul Morrison recuse themselves from any involvement in the citizen called grand jury investigation of late-term abortionist George R. Tiller, which is scheduled to convene next week. Operation Rescue is demanding that a special prosecutor be appointed to oversee the grand jury that does not have financial, political, or social ties to Tiller, as specified on the petition documents. OR President Troy Newman has sent a letter to Foulston, Morrison, and Judge Paul Buchanan, who will oversee the grand jury, stating that Foulston and Morrison have conflicts of interest regarding Tiller. Morrison recently tendered his resignation amid a sex and corruption scandal where he was accused of attempting to influence criminal cases involving Tiller and other abortion...

Operation Rescue has posted yet another scandal involving Kansas Attorney General Paul Morrison , OR Calls For Morrison Resignation Amid Sex/Abortion Corruption Scandal . This man is not only a disgrace to his office as a public servant of the people, but also to his "Catholic" faith and family. If he has an ounce of integrity, he'll resign from office. Kansas does not need or want another corrupt politician taking blood money from Tiller, sexually harassing his staff, and pressuring them to be corrupt like he is. As Troy Newman says, “This is not just about sex and abortion. This is about corruption manifested in the perverted use of sex and power for political advantage.” Yes, I am still praying for him - he desperately needs it.

Planned Parenthood facing 107 criminal charges From WorldNetDaily.com: A 107-count criminal complaint has been filed against a Planned Parenthood operation in Kansas, alleging its operators not only failed to diagnose required conditions for late-term abortions but also performed illegal abortions and provided false information about them. "Yippie," said Cheryl Sullenger, a spokeswoman for the nearby Wichita-based Operation Rescue. "This is what we've been saying all along, that they've been breaking the law." The complaint was filed by Johnson County District Attorney Phill Kline, who said in a prepared statement that he would not be commenting on the case against the Olathe business. But the statement noted that the counts against Comprehensive Health of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri were reviewed by Johnson County District Judge James Vano, who found probable cause on each count.

New concerns about broader criminal activity on the part of late-term abortionist George R. Tiller have surfaced in the wake of 19 criminal charges filed against him by Kansas Attorney General Paul Morrison on Thursday. In addition, some statements made by Morrison have led to speculation that there may be a broad conspiracy to violate the Kansas ban on post-viability abortions that may involve individuals in the Kansas Department of Heath and Environment, a bureaucracy under the oversight of pro-abortion Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. Tiller and Neuhaus “In Cahoots” The charges related to Tiller’s relationship with abortionist Ann Kristin Neuhaus, who provided the second signature required by law to justify abortions past 21 weeks gestation on 19 abortion records from 2003. Morrison, in explaining the charges at a June 28 press conference, told reporters that the law states that the two physicians cannot be “legally or financially affiliated.” He said, “In other words, they can’t be in ‘caho...

The esteemed psychiatrist who reviewed Tiller abortion records will participate in a forum for Kansas legislators and the public Tuesday evening, June 12, at 7:00 p.m. at the Doubletree Hotel at College Blvd. (110th St) and U.S. 69 Highway in Overland Park, Kansas. Paul R. McHugh, M.D. of Lawrence, Massachusetts, is visiting Kansas today and tomorrow. McHugh was listed as a witness in the charges filed against George Tiller by former Kansas attorney general (now Johnson County, Kansas district attorney) Phill Kline. Dr. McHugh has a thirty page curriculum vitae available on request. He attended Harvard Medical School and was the Psychiatrist-in-Chief of the Johns Hopkins Hospital from 1975 through 2001. In December of 2006, Dr. McHugh reviewed the medical records that were at the center of the 30 charges Kline filed against Tiller dealing with 15 late-term abortion from 2003. The records Dr. McHugh reviewed were the complete records kept by Tiller's clinic for those abortions. Duri...

Operation Rescue encourages public to express outrage over government protection of abortionist Tiller New York, NY - June 1, 2007 - Talk Show host Bill O'Reilly continued his harsh criticism of late-term abortionist George R. Tiller of Wichita, Kansas, on his radio program, which aired nationwide on May 31. The day before, O'Reilly had aired a segment on his Fox News program, The O'Reilly Factor, lambasting Tiller as well as Gov. Kathleen Sebelius for protecting him. Describing Tiller's late-term abortion business as "barbaric," O'Reilly indicated that the Tiller situation was one of the worst cases he'd ever seen. He says Sebelius is "not fit to serve" because of her veto of a provision that would have reiterated current Kansas law that requires abortionist to report the medical reason for abortions after 21 weeks gestation. "She is in the clinic standing right next to [Tiller] every day. The governor is doing exactly what that man is ...

Accuses KS Governor of protecting Tiller New York City, NY – Fox News host Bill O’Reilly rebounded from a six-month silence to issue a scathing segment on the notorious late-term abortionist George R. Tiller that aired the evening of May 30. During the segment, O’Reilly blasted Tiller for “executing fetuses” for “vague medical reasons.” He was equally critical of Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who vetoed a bill that would have required Tiller to provide specific medical reasons for abortions after 21 weeks of pregnancy. “Incredibly, Gov. Sebelius is protecting Tiller,” O’Reilly said during his broadcast. “And Gov. Sebelius is allowing him to continue the slaughter. How the governor sleeps at night is beyond me.” O’Reilly produced a document showing that Tiller has a lengthy history of campaign contributions to Sebelius going back to 1994. O’Reilly’s guest was Rep. Ben Hodge, who resigned a committee post in protest of the lack of action by Speaker Melvin Neufeld to bring Tiller to just...

The following is this morning's editorial in the Wichita Eagle written by editorial board member Brent Castillo: Gov. Kathleen Sebelius again vetoed a legislative proposal that would have required doctors to report exactly why viable fetuses -- those who could survive outside the womb -- were aborted. The Kansas Senate failed Tuesday to override her veto. At least this time Sebelius didn't muddle her veto message with personal-objection rhetoric, as she did last year. Instead she wrote that "all Kansans support efforts to reduce the number of abortions," but that the proposed law "likely" would have little substantive effect and would violate the privacy of patients. Sebelius is correct that the proposed law may not have directly reduced the number of abortions. But she is blowing more smoke than a western Kansas coal plant on the privacy concern. Privacy would have been protected, because doctors would have assigned numbers to patients and wouldn't subm...

The Speaker of the House in Kansas, Melvin Neufeld , who claims to be pro-life, is stonewalling all of the good and willing pro-life hearts in the legislature who are willing to stand up for the Truth and for the unborn children. Please pray for a miracle to happen in the next 24 hours to move things forward to change his heart and to allow the truth to be exposed about the horrors that late - term abortionist George Tiller has done and the laws he has broken in Kansas.

Scandals continue to define Morrison's controversial administration Topeka, KS - May 10, 2007 - A private citizen has filed a formal complaint against Attorney General Paul J. Morrison with the Office of the Disciplinary Administrator for violating the rules of professional conduct that governs the conduct of Kansas attorneys. The complaint centers on a press release posted on the Attorney General's official website that announced the filing of criminal charges against a police major. However, Morrison failed to note that the man facing accusations is innocent until proved guilty, as required by the rules of professional conduct. Without such a statement in the public communiqué, the case against the man could be unfairly prejudiced. Morrison's political career has been plagued by controversy since he switched parties to run for attorney general, causing the Republican Party Chairman Tim Shallenberger to question Morrison's honesty . During the campaign, former employe...
